NATOUR relies on the idea of offering a holiday conceived as an "escape from the routine of everyday life," as opposed to mass tourism, to be experienced in "slowness," in line with the lifestyle in Sicily. A concept of tourism offering more closely linked to the protection of the environment in which one walks, the culture and traditions of people living in less known and less visited contexts by conventional tourism, and, above all, to give a contribution to the small economies of these contexts. To this concept of a tourism offer that perfectly reflects that of Slow Tourism and Sustainable and Responsible Tourism, is also associated the desire to involve the tourist during a trip, in a series of unforgettable activities with a strong personal impact: activities that stimulate the senses and create connections on a physical, emotional, spiritual, social, and intellectual level. The primary goal is that during such experiences, the tourist interacts with the environment, people, history, and traditions of the place they visit. "The traveler, therefore, will not be satisfied with simply remembering their trip by taking photos, but will desire authentic experiences that they can share and tell others about."
This new concept of Experiential Tourism can be realized through these examples of activities offered in our travel proposals:
Nature Tourism, immersing oneself in the multiple sensations offered by nature;
Urban Trekking, with walks in historic centers, visiting their markets and neighborhoods rich in history and tradition;
Food and Wine Tourism, where the tourist will participate in the preparation of various local dishes or in the discovery and tasting of typical local products (wine, cheese, sweets, olive oil, etc.).
An offer of Integrated Tourism, through which the tourist can discover all the facets of the area visited every day.
